D-Sub, D-Shaped Connectors - Backshells, Hoods

The 979-025-020-121 (D-Sub connectors with hood) is a widely used type of connector in industrial, commercial, and military settings. This type of connector offers many advantages, including ease of use, high reliability, durability, and simplicity of installation. Additionally, these connectors provide protection against dust and moisture, and are highly resistant to corrosion.

The D-Sub connector is a type of plug-and-socket, often referred to as a "Starburst" connector due to its large circular base, and features several types of contacts, or pins, which are used to connect electrical components together. The design is versatile and can be used for data, signal, as well as power, applications. It is widely used in various applications including industrial control systems, medical equipment, aviation, and consumer electronics.

The 979-025-020-121 is one of the most common D-Sub connectors and is a popular choice for many applications. It features two types of shells, a hood and a backshell. The hood, also known as the front shell, is the portion of the connector that interfaces with the mating part. It is typically made of metal, such as aluminum or steel, and is used to provide a secure connection between two parts. The backshell, also known as the rear shell, is the portion of the connector that provides additional protection against dust, dirt, and corrosion. It is usually made of a plastic material and is used to help shield the wires and any other sensitive components.

The working principle of the 979-025-020-121 is relatively simple. Once two mating parts are connected, the pins inside the connector make contact with each other, allowing electrical connection between the two parts. The backshell helps to keep the interface secure and prevents any contaminants from entering the connector. Furthermore, the hood helps to prevent accidental disconnection and adds extra strength to the connection.

The 979-025-020-121 D-Sub connector is a versatile and reliable choice for many applications. Its compact design and range of contact configurations make it an ideal choice for any type of data, signal, or power connection. Additionally, its durable construction, easy installation, and corrosion-resistance ensure that it will continue to perform reliably for many years.
